seven weeks and a new finding

Today marks seven weeks. Can you believe it?? I can't! She is smiling on her own and will even laugh at my funny faces and noises! I woke Eric up at around 11 last night to show him what I thought was an awesome accomplishment. He just laughed at me.

I was making a noise and then tapping my mouth (kinda like when we played cowboys and indians when we were little). She laughed so I started tapping her mouth. After about four or five taps she would make noises and then laugh. Okay so chalk it up to mom wanting her to have actually figured something out, or just say that it was coincidence since she was laughing anyway. Either way, I got a real kick out of it!

Here are a couple of pictures from this morning:





Also, while soothing her last night, Eric told me to look and this is what I saw:

Wow! I can't believe it has been that long already. I think you're right. I think she's smart and figured out what you were doing and wanted to be like Mommy. You just go ahead and believe it! :) I love her fuzzy hair!

Uh oh...another thumb sucker. You can blame it on her Grandpa Waugh! Caleb didn't start sucking his thumb until about 3 months. But maybe you'll be successful in getting the pacifier to work and she won't just pull it out and decide she likes her thumb better. On the bright side, a thumb is a lot easier to keep track of, and it sure is cute!
